Software Vendors Are In Trouble, Leaders Are Scared, & Companies Have ALL the Leverage Now

Software Vendors Are In Trouble, Leaders Are Scared, & Companies Have ALL the Leverage Now

Feb 5, 2026: Are software vendors in trouble? Why are employees suddenly complying with return-to-office mandates? And what happens when leaders are afraid to ask their own teams for feedback?

In today's episode of Future-Ready Today, we unpack five stories that together reveal a major reset happening inside organizations:

  • Why Workday is cutting jobs — and what falling enterprise software stocks (including ServiceNow) signal about how AI is disrupting traditional SaaS business models.

  • New data showing workers backing down on return-to-office demands as employers reclaim leverage.

  • A leadership study revealing that senior executives want feedback — but fear appearing weak if they ask.

  • Layoffs surging to the highest January level since 2009, driven in part by restructuring at UPS following shifts in volume from Amazon.

  • And research from Bain & Company showing a massive disconnect between leaders who think change is working and employees who say it isn't.
